Please pardon our tardiness

It is taking us a LOT longer than we estimated to switch our reader database over to our new software, so we finally said Never Mind, and we’re doing the addressing of the magazine by hand and shipping them out as quickly as we’re able. We’re hoping this will seem quaint and charming to everyone, and not tacky and unprofessional. Thank you for your loving patience, and please forgive us for our tardiness.
